WASHINGTON (NEXSTAR) — Former President Joe Biden has been diagnosed with prostate cancer, his office said Sunday.
Biden was seen last week by doctors after urinary symptoms and a prostate nodule was found. He was diagnosed with prostate cancer on Friday, with the cancer cells having spread to the bone.
“While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management," his office said. "The President and his family are reviewing treatment options with his physicians.”
A regular medical exam revealed a "small nodule" on Biden's prostate earlier this month, Nexstar's The Hill previously reported. The finding "necessitated further evaluation," a spokesperson told affiliate NewsNation.
Biden, 82, had a lesion removed from his chest during a physical exam in 2023. It was determined to be a basal cell carcinoma, according to The Hill.
The Associated Press contributed to this developing report.
